Then in the evenings when your husband is done work him and your MIL can go out and have some time together. You will already have a little break from the kiddos during the day and then in the evenings you won't feel as tired or burnt out when your husband goes out with his mom. Seems like a win win for everyone. Who knows maybe one evening as a family you guys can all go sightseeing together? Give your husband some mother/son time a few evenings and then family evenings some other nights as well.

I'm shocked that 7 pages in no one else thought of this.

Also surprised your husband hasn't brought it up. There is literally a family house that you guys can stay in for free and you and your husband hasn't utilized that option.

I'm also shocked your MIL wouldn't offer that to her son for his wife/ her DIL and grandkids. This is close family. Is there normally tension or weirdness between you and MIL that this wouldn't just be a given? This isn't some casual friend here it's close family.

I would definitely talk to your husband about talking to his mother about you guys staying at the timeshare also.

My mind is boggled that she wouldn't offer this to her DIL and her own grandkids.

DIL was NOT invited. Why does she get to invite herself because she doesn't want to take care of the kids alone for a few days. Why can't a son see his mother without the wife for once. Stop being so dam clingy.

It's funny how a wife has to be invited to spend time with her own husband on a business trip. The bigger question is why isn't the husband bringing it up to his mom that it's not like his mom has to pay for the wife and kids to stay at the timeshare so what's the harm in letting them use it.

It's weird that essentially the husband is taking a week vacation with his mom leaving his own wife and children knowing that his wife is stressed.

This just sounds whiney. Get a grip. He’s allowed to do things without you like traveling for work.

You sound nuts to think that a wife needs to be invited to spend time with her own husband.

HUSBAND DOESN'T WANT HER TO COME.

So he wants mommy to entertain him for a week but not his own wife and kids? Sounds like he is checked out of the marriage

This just sounds whiney. Get a grip. He’s allowed to do things without you like traveling for work.

But why does he want his mom and not his own wife and kids. Is he 5

Why are you so concerned over a strangers marriage? He’s going to see his mom for a few hours a day while on a work trip and all you ninnies have your parties in a twist about it. Like you seriously just can’t handle it. It says a lot more about you than him. Don’t have kids if you can’t take care of them for a little while by yourself. Marriage doesn’t mean you have to be together 24/7 365 till death. JFC.

That is bc she is not a SAHM. She mentioned she is already stressed out and that there will be logistical challenges. This would only be true if she has a ton more on her plate than a typical SAHM, or else is the laziest SAHM ever.

Ok my bad that makes a lot more sense then. Was wondering why 7 pages in this hasn't been thought of of better her why MIL wouldn't offer this to her DIL and grandkids. Thought she was one of those MILs whose only person who exists in her world is her son but I stand corrected.

Also, the kids might have school and other commitments. I can’t imagine in what world taking your kids for a random week’s vacation is easier than keeping them at home in their routines.
